The 'Milestones' essays in Mass Communication and Society are reflective and analytical articles by the most notable scholars in the field. These classic essays address 21st century issues from the pioneers of media and communication studies, including Elihu Katz on new media and social movements, George Gerbner on cultivation analysis, and Dietram Scheufele on political communication. As technologies evolve and mass communication becomes mobilized and democratized - more individual and also more social - these landmark scholars provide ideas about how established theories may be applied in new ways, and how future research can expand our understanding of mass communication as its reach and effects grow ever larger. This book will be essential reading for both students and researchers of Mass Communications Research.

Описание: This book examines the major business communication theories, delving into their relationships and practical applications. Many business communication studies lack a strong theoretical grounding-a deficit that creates difficulties for researching business communication phenomena and building upon previous studies.

Описание:
In Major Theories of Media Effects, six major theories of media effects are thoroughly analyzed and then evaluated to construct a picture of the current state of knowledge in the scholarly field of media effects. These six theories are cultivation, agenda setting, framing, uses and gratifications, social learning, and third person effect. Each of these six theories is examined in detail using fourteen analytical dimensions organized into four categories: how the theory was originally conceptualized, its original components, patterns of empirical testing of its claims, and how the theory has developed over time. The theories are then compared and contrasted along five evaluation dimensions (scope, precision, heuristic value, empirical validity, and openness), plus one summary evaluative dimension that compares their overall utility to generating knowledge about media effects. The insights generated through these analyses and evaluations are used to address questions such as: "What is a theory?"; "Who qualifies as a theoretician?"; and, "Within the scholarly field of media effects, why are there so many theories yet so little theory usage as foundations for empirical studies?"
Concise and accessible analyses of major media effects theories—alongside helpful reference lists that handily index important literature in the field—make Major Theories of Media Effects both a vital reference for scholars and a valuable textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses in media studies.
Might it be possible to rearticulate the term digital in digital media, so that it refers at least as much to the deft movements or orientations of hands and fingers (of digits) as it does to the new media technologies themselves? What if digital media are understood as manual media?
Has the academic field of media studies tended to focus too much on media, and not enough on the practices and experiences of daily living that help to give media their meaningfulness? What if media researchers were to pay more attention to knowledge-in-movement or to matters of orientation and habitation, and rather less to those of symbolic representation and cognitive interpretation?
Digital Orientations is a bold call for non-media-centric media studies (and ultimately for everyday-life studies) with a non-representational theoretical emphasis. The author engages here with a broad range of work from across the humanities and social sciences, drawing on Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological philosophy, Ingold’s anthropology, the geographies of Massey, Seamon and Thrift, and the sociologies of Bourdieu, Sudnow and Urry.

Описание: This book meticulously examines the works of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels (including numerous letters) to present their thoughts on communication and media studies from the perspective of "world intercourse" to reveal their spread in all areas of social information dissemination of ideas.

Описание: The book believes that the formation of public diplomacy must be based on the background and ideological of global communication. Therefore, the impact of global political and cultural characteristics can be clearly seen on the policy behaviors of public diplomacy. Public diplomacy is also based on the unit of the nation-state, which means that public diplomacy is inseparable from all the decisions of the basic unit of the nation-state. This also means that the dispute on globalization in recent years has brought great impact on the survival and development environment of public diplomacy. The book acknowledges that public diplomacy is a two-way communication. Therefore, it is necessary for public diplomacy to answer questions about global communication from all aspects, especially about a nation’s history, culture, traditions and mode of thinking. In the meanwhile, at times of the emergency, public diplomacy is adopted as a guiding mechanism of public opinion, releasing the facts, background and influence of incidents; on the other hand, public diplomacy goes alongside with the foreign policy of a nation, answering questions about the nation’s path, methods and goals of its entry into the world system.
